Abstract New organotin(IV) complexes of 5,7-ditertbutyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine ( dbtp ) and 5,7-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine ( dptp ) with 1:1 and/or 1:2 stoichiometry were synthesized and investigated by X-ray diffraction, FT-IR and 119 Sn Mossbauer in the solid state and by 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy, in solution. Moreover, the crystal and molecular structures of Et 2 SnCl 2 (dbtp) 2 and Ph 2 SnCl 2 (EtOH) 2 (dptp) 2 are reported. The complexes contain hexacoordinated tin atoms: in Et 2 SnCl 2 (dbtp) 2 two 5,7-ditertbutyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine molecules coordinate classically the tin atom through N(3) atom and the coordination around the tin atom shows a skew trapezoidal structure with axial ethyl groups. In Ph 2 SnCl 2 (EtOH) 2 (dptp) 2 two ethanol molecules coordinate tin through the oxygen atom and the 5,7-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine molecules are not directly bound to the metal center but strictly H-bonded, through N(3), to the OH group of the ethanol moieties; Ph 2 SnCl 2 (EtOH) 2 (dptp) 2 has an all-trans structure and the C–Sn–C fragment is linear. On the basis of Mossbauer data, the 1:2 diorganotin(IV) complexes are advanced to have the same structure of Et 2 SnCl 2 (dbtp) 2 , while Me 2 SnCl 2 (dptp) 2 to have a regular all-trans octahedral structure. A distorted cis -R 2 trigonal bipyramidal structure is assigned to 1:1 diorganotin(IV) complexes. The in vitro antibacterial activities of the synthesized complexes have been tested against a group of reference pathogen micro-organisms and some of them resulted active with MIC values of 5 μg/mL, most of all against staphylococcal strains, which shows their inhibitory effect.
